Before coming to "Quill Pen", Xu Shi had thought about what it would be like to see Wen Shengkui teaching Gu Yi.
One thing he said was that he had always felt that his grandfather was very much like a teacher - even though the old man had a lot of tendons, when he restrained himself, he could really be overshadowed by his literary aura, which was the best embodiment of his years of cultural practice.
As for Gu Yi, she is obviously a delinquent little girl, but it is undeniable that she is very smart. The last time she taught her to race, the little black rabbit learned it very quickly... I just don't know if the culture class will be the same. .
Anyway, it should be fun for these two to get together.
but.
What he saw was very different from what he imagined.
The picture of literary, ink and bookishness in my mind simply doesn’t exist! Instead, two people each use a controller, and they play games together... online? !
"Old man, go ahead and cut him in the middle!"
"Then remember to give me milk! I'll die if I let him touch me!"
"Don't worry, I'm officially one of the top ten nannies in the server!"
"Put it down! You didn't milk me last time!"
"..."
Xu Shi silently closed the door, then opened it again.
What did I see?
It's numb, but where's the pen, ink, paper, inkstone, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting?
Why did it turn into playing games? !
The game is still "God's Coming"!
Key: Grandpa, what’s the deal with that game terminology that comes out of your mouth? You make everyone feel so strange!
"you……"
He was a little dizzy for a moment, my dear, this was really a path he had never imagined... So he tentatively waved his hand and called out to the two people who were playing so selflessly.
"...Huh? Are you coming soon?"
Miss Black Rabbit glanced at him and said, "Wait a minute, the boss at the end of the level has his last bit of health left, he'll be here soon."
……walk slowly.
Xu Shi's eyes twitched, and he waited politely for them to finish the game, and then grabbed Miss Black Rabbit over angrily.
"So you've been dragging grandpa to play games while I was away, right?"
He drilled Gu Yi's forehead with his fingers, "I really have you, Gu Xiaoyi. I will never forget your crappy games, right?"
"No way!"
Gu Yi reacted and shouted aggrievedly, "I'm studying too, okay! This is just to relax after class..."
"Of course, let go of little Gu Yi."
Wen Shengkui also threw the controller aside and began to lecture Xu Shi, "Youdao is about combining work and rest. I also happen to want to know about young people's entertainment methods."
Xu Shi was dumbfounded. Where are you from, old man?
The key is how old are you? There is really no resistance to perfectly integrating into the youth segment, right?
"Who told you to be absent recently..."
Seeing someone standing up for her, Miss Black Rabbit felt confident, "Even if you are here, you won't play with me, and you won't allow me to find someone else?"
"..."
Xu Shi wants to beat her in front of her again, are you still reasonable?
No matter how many people ask for the opportunity, you are so excited... But it should be said that you are really talented in this area. He was surprised when you were able to drag Su Lin into the water last time. This time you actually did it. Even Mr. Wen fell into your trap?
To be honest, it was difficult for him to connect the two events of Wen Shengkui and "God's Arrival". Maybe this was also because of the stereotypes in his previous life? There is a saying that it is not easy for an old man to learn how to use a mobile phone and computer... He vaguely remembers that it took him more than a month in his previous life to teach his grandparents to use chat software.
But Wen Shengkui is obviously not like this. The old man himself is very knowledgeable and has at least some knowledge of all walks of life. Coupled with the big environment of Night Sin City, it is not difficult to get started with the game.
So he thought about it and relaxed. In addition to studying, asking Gu Yi to spend more time with Wen Shengkui was actually a way for the grandfather and grandson to repair their relationship? Caring for empty-nesters... From this perspective, Miss Black Rabbit did surprisingly well. At least when the two of them were finishing the dungeon just now, Xu Shi could clearly feel that the old man was in a very happy mood.
"So are you here to take her home? Or is there something else?"
Wen Shengkui cleared his throat and returned to his usual dignified appearance, "If not, it's okay for little Gu Yi to stay with me. I like this child very much and she's good at taking care of people... It's still very pleasant to get along with her. .”
I think you want to continue to form a team with her to brush up your bankroll. Old man, you have fallen... Xu Shi was ashamed. He really couldn't think of any place in Gu Yi's relationship with the word "can take care of people" from top to bottom.
However, he could also see the approval in the other person's eyes. This time, it was really him who was praising him, and it had a kind of "boy, you have found a good wife" meaning in it.
Wen Shengkui was not stupid. When Xu Shi brought Gu Yi to see him, he had probably noticed it. Although he hadn't asked in detail these days, he also got a rough idea - there was a designated relationship between the two. Something, otherwise, if she were just an employee, how could you put so much effort into paving the way for her and arranging opportunities for her to improve herself?
——You are quite playful, boy. I remember you have a fiancée, right?
--oh? So grandpa, do you have any advice?
——I just want to say that young people have great bodies, but they still have to pay attention.
It can also be seen from this silent eye contact that Wen Shengkui has no idea of interfering in his eldest grandson's relationship. It depends on your ability to find one or ten. Don't let yourself get carried away. It doesn't matter.
The old man was surprisingly enlightened.
"I'm here to take her back. Mainly because I have some business that needs her to do."
Xu Shi nodded and returned to the topic, "Something happened in the company, including at "Dragon City", and the situation may also change. "
"Um?"
Wen Shengkui can ignore the former and just handle it yourself, but he can't help but care about the latter, "What exactly is going on?"
Xu Shi didn't need to hide it from him and told him roughly what happened before.
"……I see."
After hearing what he said, Wen Shengkui instantly understood the cause and effect, "It seems that the old boy from Long Tianding is not of the same mind as us. What do you think?"
He was not surprised by this. Although Long Tianding had taken the initiative to discuss the development of Suicheng with him before, the old man also knew that the other party's concern was definitely not what happened to the common people of Suicheng, but the expediency of a stable relationship. It's just a plan.
For example, if there is an opportunity now for him to obtain more profits at the cost of killing most of the residents of Sin City, Long Tianding may not consider it.
This also made Wen Shengkui a little dissatisfied, so he asked Xu Shi's opinion with another layer of subtext - do you have any ideas to deal with him now? Regarding this matter, "Quill Pen" is still happy to achieve further cooperation with "Snake Ring".
"My idea is not to rush."
Xu Shi shook his head, "There are still some restless people in the "Snake Ring". Now let's wait for them to get together. It's better to catch them all than to alert the snake. "
This was his own plan, otherwise why would he limit Shen Qin and Lin Wenhua's escape route to "Dragon City"? Not to mention that there was Shen He from outside the city who had to consider that instead of letting them deal with it one by one, they might as well get together and have a roll party.
As for the test of Longtian Cauldron... I'm sorry that Xu Shi didn't think he passed. To be honest, Xu Dong's requirements in this regard are not very high. If the other party can directly bind Lin Wenhua and Shen Qin after contacting them, Get up and bring it to yourself, then everyone can naturally continue to talk and laugh together in the future.
Or even if you tell me? Don’t you think I can’t notice your little moves? I'll draw the line for you, okay... But the fact is that Longtian Cauldron doesn't show any expression now, which makes it clear that he wants to bet on both ends.
Xu Shi cannot accept this kind of behavior, so naturally there is one more person to consider solving. As for what the other party thinks, it is not within his scope of consideration.
"Too."
Wen Shengkui expressed his understanding and his mood relaxed a little.
"……I support."
Gu Yi paused and expressed his opinion weakly.
But she was not targeting others, just Lin Wenhua - don't forget that this old guy once sent someone to assassinate her. Although it was unsuccessful, she saw everything, and naturally she wanted the old guy to assassinate her. Things die sooner.
Miss Black Rabbit is also very vindictive!
But since she couldn't think of more profound things, she was very sensible and didn't express many opinions. She decided to let the bastard do it. If there was something she needed, she would be happy to implement it carefully.
"Don't worry, if there is any movement in "Dragon City", I will not sit idly by and ignore it. "
Mr. Wen immediately expressed his position, and he also knew what Xu Shi meant - firstly, to what extent "Quill Pen" could contribute in this matter, and secondly, because Long Tianding itself is difficult to deal with. "Upgraded", it was S-class many years ago. No one knows whether there has been a further breakthrough now, but in short it is difficult to solve.
Fortunately, he was also willing to help his eldest grandson solve this problem, so he accepted the request.
"Thank you very much, Grandpa."
Xu Shi smiled, having this promise was stronger than anything else.
"Haha, isn't it time you saw me and Xiao Gu Yi playing games and making a bad face?"
Wen Shengkui snorted, "Let me tell you, if you dare to bully her back home, I won't spare you."
After hearing this, Gu Yi felt confident instantly, showed a faint smile of confusion, and pointed at Xu Shi with her finger.
Play "God's Coming" for me.
"No way."
Xu Shi said haha, what's the point of taking care of this kind of thing... But little black rabbit, don't be too arrogant. With my grandpa backing you, you dare to slap your nose in the face? Then you underestimated your director Xu too much. You must deal with it properly when you go back. He doesn't believe that Gu Yi dares to really come to complain, otherwise he will be bullied even more severely.
Don't underestimate Mr. Xu's 80, you bastard!
"By the way, haven't you seen Miss He Er?"
Before leaving, Xu Shi asked casually as he remembered that the studio he passed by was empty.
"She comes less recently and doesn't live here much."
Wen Shengkui sighed, "That old boy He Jiayuan came to talk to me in person. Now he knows that she is his daughter? Why is he afraid that someone with ulterior motives will make a fuss about it?"
This is true. Who knew He Yuxia could survive such a major surgery? If nothing happens, then nothing can be said. Otherwise, it will really be a big trouble.
In this case, he naturally couldn't stop him. Anyway, He Yuxia was not grounded and locked up. In his opinion, it was a good thing - he didn't expect the He family to change their minds and let her do whatever they wanted, but at least they paid attention to her. It wouldn't be bad if he could be nice to her.
"To be honest, both Yuxia and Xiao Gu Yi are good children in my eyes."
Speaking of this, Mr. Wen was also very emotional, "It's mainly about the boys, you know? They are actually a bit like your mother."
"Yeah?"
Xu Shi raised his eyebrows, he was really not sure about this.
But it’s strange to think about it. These two people have completely different character templates, right? Old man, why do you make my mother look like a crackpot when you say this?
"Want to hear it? I want to talk to you."
Speaking of this, Wen Shengkui's chatterbox suddenly opened up, and he told them about Xu Shi's mother Wen Rujin with a gentle expression.
It was the first time that Xu Shi had a detailed understanding of his mother - how should I put it? Listening to the old man's description, he also found that his mother was a very interesting person.
As the eldest daughter of "Quill Pen", Wen Rujin naturally received an education from a scholarly family since she was a child. In the past, the old man also trained her as the future successor of "Quill Pen".
And Wen Rujin did not live up to the family's expectations. He was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting at a young age, and he was also quite skillful in socializing with others. In terms of positioning, he may be quite similar to the former Xia Keyan - the fact is The two of them were indeed comparable to each other back then, and in the eyes of outsiders they were considered to be very dazzling twins.
However, compared to the white-haired lolita, Wen Rujin may be more lively and has a bit more quirkiness in her dealings with people. She has a lot of past experience of playing tricks on her opponents, and she still makes people laugh when talking about it now. People were dumbfounded and laughed.
After Xu Shi heard this, it became clear. No wonder Xia Keyan's old aunt always mentioned her mother. I'm afraid it was also caused by the comparison mentality in the early years?
As for the fact that "He Yuxia and Gu Yi are both very similar to Wen Rujin", it can be easily explained. They each account for half of my mother's personality? One is as quiet as a virgin, the other is as active as a lost rabbit.
"Even your kid is actually very similar to Ah Jin, but he is more observant of people?"
Wen Shengkui added, "Ah Jin was also an S-class "upgraded" back then, and could read other people's inner thoughts on a wide scale... You are very willing to follow her in this regard. "
"It's also a good thing to be somewhat similar to my mother."
Xu Shi smiled when he heard this. No wonder he always felt like a fish in water in this regard. Should I say it was hereditary?
But the abilities of "upgraded ones" shouldn't be inherited, right? Of course, this doesn't seem to be a supernatural power. He knows very well that his ability to accurately understand the other party's psychological activities is not entirely due to the "entropy of evil thoughts."
But then again, my mother’s character sounds quite rich, so how did she end up getting together with my father?
Thinking of his father Xu Cheng's standard boring old father character, Xu Shi also felt a little want to laugh for no reason.
